e.p. hall makes thinky, creepy, guitar-and-electrobuzz folksongs from the lonely midwestern united states. The project’s influences include various diy, freak-folk, and new/weird mini-movements. The most well known of the e.p. hall recordings is the 2006 ep ‘The edge the middle’ . ‘Mommy Crow’ is scheduled for release in 2009. Other releases include ‘this is a demo’ from 2003. e.p. hall songs have appeared on two of the Live from Bloomington charity compilation projects (2007 and 2009).
The project has been described as having a “haunting vocal style and unique finger-picked guitar combined with warm and engaging keyboards and effects to create beautifully mournful songs”.
e.p. hall’s only constant member is a female human named e.p. (though, confusingly, not named e.p. hall). Former contributors include j. hall/Lone Logician and Joshua Radicke. Current collaborators include Andy Goheen of Sticky and the Bees.
